To this day, I remember when I was in the machine department, the smallest of lathes and such with projects in them, waiting for tomorrow (I worked at night when no one was there)
Now that I think of it, I was an honest young man in a world that trusted people back then.
I don't even know if Honeywell is still around, but I remember being in a macjine shop that seemed to be set up for miniaturization.
I built the equipment and did the setups for running mass manufacturing of pultruded fiberglass hollow planks which were then filled with cleaned shredded tire rubber, and these planks were built into panels for sound suppression for CALTRANS. They are now along the freeways in California, I built the original equipment.
But I spent 10 months working with a vertical mill and other machine shop equipment getting the design bugs out on the concept, I actually drew most of the plans on bar napkins, this was back in 1994.
“An AR15 was NOT used in the Conn. Shootings!”
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
That’s what I thought! I haven’t watched that much coverage on TV because I don’t believe most of what they say anyway but I saw a report where they were saying the shooter (whoever it really was) used two or three handguns and the AR-15 was found in the car trunk. Then I see this idiot Pears Moreguff or whoever he is claiming that the AR-15 was the favorite weapon of mass killers and that is what was used at Sandy Point.
I thoroughly enjoyed machining, but I allowed other interests to take me away at too young of an age. Joined the Army and a boatload of etcetera's
Old too soon get we .. shmaht too late.
“...Childhood keeps getting redefined older and older by the left; they love immaturity since it gives them an excuse to dictate.”
Precisely! Their stats on “children” killed with guns invariably contain 18-20 year old gang bangers who are the victims of their own criminal enterprises.
Back in the day, a Chevy V8 push rod was a pretty good barrel for a .22 long rifle round.
So I heard.
Replicator control is already being discussed??
Liberals call 24 year olds kids while saying 11 year olds are old enough for sex
libs never make sense
But of course, libtards have never touched an AR-15, much less know how one works. I and many other FReepers, on the other hand, have built our own up from parts, and have intimate knowledge of how they work.
Gun control can't touch us.
Read an article a group printed an ar-15 and failed after 6 shots.
Print extra copies.
What rifle WAS used, then?
As expected, the buffer tube mount broke loose from the receiver as a result of the off-axis stress from the recoil. They are already working on beefing that part of the receiver up.
I’m waiting for the 2X as it will also allow ABS :) Supposed to be out soon and while the 2 is around $2400 I’m expecting the 2X to run just a bit more with the added ability. Can’t wait.
Well actually I was pointing out in my own way that worry about this is a foolish thing. No one has one of these things sitting around doing nothing.
Some weird people have been known to put their butts on copiers, so I wonder how THAT would turn out.....LOL!
